Hi guys,
have laid down my second all grain today and it did not goes as well as the first. this time we were after 25l for final instead of 23l so instead of 4.8kg of grain we had 5kg of grain. I did the same for my mash and added 20l of hot water, ending up with 14l and gained the rest with sparging. how much water should i be adding for the mash? is there a ratio i should be working of per weight in grains? does this effect my final product?
also if my temp drops below 62 deg during mash over the hour does this then mean I will not gain as much sugars as possible hence giving me a lighter been as a end result.
thanks in advance
